For a Democrat, I like Joe Biden.  He plays the “Man of the People” card very well.  He opens with a lead on Trump.  But now that he’s the front runner, the daggers will be out from all sides.  Trump will have fun with “Sleepy Joe” and the radical lefties that are running against Joe will eviscerate him.

If you think Trump is loose with his words, Biden is a perpetual “gaffe” machine and there will no doubt be a plethora of these coming…not to mention the decades he has on file.  He will also be held accountable for his flips on many positions.

Personally, Biden’s age seems to be catching up with him.  Some people handle their age better than others.  Bernie Sanders seems extremely energetic while Biden appears to no longer have his “A” game.  It will be interesting to see how the grind of a campaign will be on him.

I personally don’t see the Democratic Party letting a rich old white guy lead the ticket.  It will be interesting.

If Biden gets the nomination then obviously there are a lot of old hateful democrats. But, I don’t think they need to die.

I think there are a lot of moderate democrats that are afraid to express their views out of fear from the radical left.  This people will lambaste anytone that’s not following the socialist agenda.  These people are going to quietly do do at the ballot box.

For once can we get a presidential candidate under the age of oh I don’t know, 45?  Or at least 50?  Holy crap.  I’m so tired of old men running this thing.  One thing I can’t knock about Obama, the dude was charismatic and you felt like you could have a normal conversation with him.  He was relatable.  Bush was just kinda lost all the time, Cheney had something like 9 heart attacks and ended up shooting a guy because he can’t handle a gun, Biden is a giant creepo on women and children who seemly doesn’t do much but is always just there, Trump is like that really loud annoying school yard bully who could possibly do a good job but he won’t stfu long enough to find out and is always picking the wrong little squabbly side fights, and who is Pence has he done anything does he even go to work?

Biden is going to end up dying of old age in office.  We don’t need to be electing an almost 80 year old to office, sorry.  He’s so far out of touch, clueless.  Listen, Biden was attached to Obama which is why everyone likes him.  Do I think he is better than Bernie?  Hell Yes.  Would I vote for either?  Hell no.  Bernie will give the country away piece by piece for free, Biden will be clueless as the country is taken for free out from under him.

Wake me up when someone like Nikki Haley runs.  The age for office might as well be raised to 65 and come with an AARP application.

While I’m taking a breaking from partisan politics, I am noticing something in the Democratic party that I want to comment on.

While the radical left seems to be controlling the media trying to advance a hyper liberal and socialist agenda, the polls have 78 year old Joe Biden with a commanding lead in the field which is a huge tell IMO.  What it tells me so far is the moderates are too scared to voice their resistance to this far left agenda and have become a silent majority that are keeping their mouths shuts probably in fear of being ostracized by the hyber-liberals that will brand them as traitors, racisits, for not agreeing with the extremist candidates.  They will do their talking at the ballot box which is smart.

There is no reason a rich, white 78 year old establishment white democrat should be doing this well in the polls.

I think Biden will likely win the nomination. There is a group that’s far left, and they’ll try and out-socialist each other. They’ll tear each other up and will split the votes of that segment of the party. Biden will be the one closest to the center, and that’s where a lot of the silent votes lie.
